My house was confiscated and I was exiled. I emptied the emperor's warehouse and fled.

At dawn the next day, Zhu Chengping sneaked into the military camp, secretly contacted various ministries, and launched an encirclement and suppression campaign against Zuo Yang and his entourage from the capital.

Zuo Yang and others were highly skilled in martial arts, but they were outnumbered, so they had to flee in embarrassment. Their retreat was blocked by the Qin family soldiers on the periphery, and they were defeated and died.

At this point, Jizhou Camp returned to Zhu Chengping's hands.

Zhu Chengping summoned the entire battalion, stood on a high platform, and loudly told everyone about the new emperor's evil deeds of stealing the throne, killing Zhongliang, etc., and decided to rebel from the court and join Qin Junyi.

After hearing Zhu Chengping's words, the soldiers felt excited and raised their weapons in excitement, expressing their willingness to follow him and join him.

If they turned to someone else, they would inevitably hesitate, but that person was their hero Qin Junyi!

Qin Junyi's reputation was like thunder throughout the Zhou Dynasty. He once led an army to drive away the invading foreign enemies, which caused Beidi to fail. He had to sign a humiliating end-of-war contract. He was deeply respected and loved by the world, and was known as the "God of War".

Last year, he was killed by the new emperor. After all the torture, he still did not forget his original intention and did his best to seek welfare for the people under his jurisdiction.

Resisting foreign enemies, tax reform, paying attention to people's livelihood...the implementation of measures to benefit the people one after another has made the Youzhou area a prosperous scene.

The people of the original Jizhou City who had suffered from the epidemic and moved to Yanyun County in Youzhou were deeply touched. They had witnessed the rise of the Qin family with their own eyes, and they were extremely grateful for the decision they made at the time, so that they could live the life they have now. A stable life with no worries about food and clothing.

Those people were grateful to the Qin family from the bottom of their hearts, and spontaneously wrote letters to inform their relatives and friends still in Jizhou about the Qin family's benevolent policies, asking them to move their families to Youzhou.

Therefore, the soldiers in the Jizhou camp were no strangers to Qin Junyi.

Such a benevolent and righteous general is rare in the world!

Zhu Chengping nodded with satisfaction, and after making some arrangements, he immediately left for Youzhou to formally meet with Qin Junyi.

When the news came back to the Qin Mansion, Qin Junyi and Su Yunwan were sitting in the study, one handling official duties and the other reading travel notes.

When Su Yunwan heard the content of the report, he couldn't help but laugh out loud: "The Dog Emperor is really naive. With your family's precedent, he still wants to solve the problem by changing generals."

Qin Junyi's pupils narrowed and glowed dangerously: "My home?"

Su Yunwan smiled coquettishly: "...the Qin family."

Qin Junyi: "..."

"Why aren't you surprised at all?" Su Yunwan asked, changing the subject and raising an eyebrow.

Qin Junyi had indeed expected it: "General Zhu has not sent troops for a long time, and he has become a thorn in the side of the new emperor. It will be a matter of time before he is punished."

Su Yunwan asked again: "Now that he has openly rebelled, what are the plans for the hostages left in the capital?"

"He contacted me secretly before, hoping that I would help him rescue his family. I have already prepared the manpower left in the capital. Now an emergency rescue order has been issued to try to move those people away before the emperor receives news of the mutiny."

"Since I'm in a hurry, why don't I take a trip. It just so happens that I don't have a lot of food reserves here, so I can replenish some supplies by the way."

The quality of Su Yunwan's ripened grain was too good to be used for disaster relief. It was too eye-catching.

As for military camp grain and grass, as early as the first half of the year, Qin Junyi, who wanted to minimize his dependence on Su Yunwan, cooperated with Xia Yiming, a wealthy businessman from Jiangnan, and truckloads of grain were continuously transported from Jiangnan, practicing the strategy of "accumulating grain widely".

Upon hearing that Su Yunwan was going to buy food, Qin Junyi immediately expressed his objection: "Wanwan, I still have a lot of food here, so I can use some of it for disaster relief. There have been two unsolved cases in the imperial city, and we will definitely strengthen our preparedness. Don't do it again." Going on an adventure.”

Su Yunwan cared about her children and didn't want to be stranded unexpectedly, so she said, "Then I'll just deliver the letter."

Qin Junyi then said: "Then I will come too."

After receiving the agreement, he left the mansion to handle the preparations for receiving the Jizhou Army.

The next day, Zhu Chengping arrived at the Youzhou government office and was warmly entertained by Qin Junyi at a banquet.

After the banquet, Zhu Chengping formally knelt down and worshiped Qin Junyi as his lord, presented the tiger talisman, and officially joined the Qin family army.

Then, he looked worried: "I will ask my lord to save my family members."

Qin Junyi said: "Don't worry, our people will do their best to bring them out of the capital safely and reunite with you as soon as possible. During this period, I also ask you to lead the Jizhou army and gradually capture the entire Jizhou. I will send people to take over those cities. Expand our territory.”

Zhu Chengping cupped his fists and saluted, his voice sonorous and powerful: "I will live up to my lord's expectations!"

Qin Junyi nodded and added: "In this campaign, my cousin Qin Junluo will serve as the supervisor of the army. If you encounter difficulties or need assistance, you can discuss it with him and he will give you the greatest support. "

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Junluo, who was standing aside, stepped forward, gave Zhu Chengping a standard hand-over-hand salute, and said in a sincere tone: "General Zhu, this junior is not very talented. I hope you will give me more advice in the future." Give me some advice.”

Seeing this, Zhu Chengping hurriedly returned the gesture with fists raised, and responded humbly: "I don't dare to take it seriously. Mr. Qin has given you too much praise. Let's just learn from each other and work together to do our best for the war."

The two looked at each other and smiled, showing a tacit understanding and trust between them.

*

That night, Feng Jingming, the secret agent in the capital, saw Qin Junyi and Su Yunwan again and went to Zhu's Mansion with the token entrusted by Zhu Chengping.

When Mrs. Zhu saw the token, she cooperated especially with Feng Jingming's action plan.

Early the next morning, the whole family went hiking in the countryside and never returned.

After the incident, the new emperor sent people to follow them along the way, but there was no news, as if they disappeared out of thin air.

The reason for this result was that in order to avoid unnecessary sacrifices, Su Yunwan simply did nothing and stunned the Zhu family and moved them thousands of miles away.

Then they were allowed to live in seclusion for a few days, and after blurring the geographical location and time, Feng Jingming led the team and set off for Jizhou.

Feng Jingming has already seen the strangeness of Su Yunwan and Qin Junyi, and he can barely accept the teleportation. At the same time, he believed that Su Yunwan was the so-called daughter of destiny and was full of expectations for the future.

At that time, Su Yunwan and Qin Junyi had returned to Youzhou. Just as the three-day deadline had expired, Qin Ruolan gave her choice.

In the spacious and bright study room, Qin Ruolan sat at the side, showing a clear understanding of the righteousness, and said with firm eyes: "Brother, I am willing to shoulder the responsibility as the daughter of the Qin family, marry far away from Goguryeo, and marry the prince. ”

"Have you thought it through? You won't regret it?" Qin Junyi frowned slightly.

"This is the result of my careful consideration." Qin Ruolan's expression paused slightly, with concern for the future in his eyes.

She bit her lip and continued: "It's just that I am in a foreign country, and I am afraid that one day I will be trapped in an isolated and helpless situation. I beg my eldest brother to give me a capable subordinate as a personal bodyguard and let him accompany me to Goguryeo.

In this way, no matter what kind of difficulties and obstacles I encounter, at least there will be a trustworthy person around me who can try his best to protect me. "
